Formscan By Gary Carson - BLEU DE VASSY stands out here and should prove hard to beat. The Cokoriko gelding opened his account in fine style when taking a Clonmel bumper in April having been runner-up a couple of times previously. He has jumping experience, having been placed in a point-to-point, and should make a nice staying novice hurdler this season. Blaze The Way was pitched in at the deep end on his hurdling debut, when pulling up in Grade 2 company at Fairyhouse in March. The Getaway gelding had won a bumper at Thurles previously and looks the obvious danger. Fast Felix has a couple of solid enough placed efforts over timber and should pick up prize-money again.
